What it is	This is a one-year English and design foundation program for international students whose English skills need strengthening before entering architecture or design studies. You take intensive English classes alongside introductory courses in architecture, landscape design, and visual design to build both language ability and design thinking. It suits international students who have strong potential but need to reach the English proficiency standard the university requires for direct entry into degree programs.	An Arts degree at King's focuses on language, thought, and belief through subjects like English, French, Philosophy, and Theology. You study texts, ideas, and how people understand the world through writing, culture, and religion rather than science or professional training. This program suits students who enjoy reading, discussion, and deep thinking about meaning and expression.	You study arts subjects alongside business fundamentals in a joint-major degree. This combines the breadth of humanities and social sciences with business skills like finance, management, and organizational thinking, rather than letting you focus on just one. It suits people who want a flexible foundation for careers that blend analytical and communication skills across diverse fields.	An Honours Arts degree lets you study humanities and social sciences in depth, choosing from subjects like history, English, anthropology, environmental studies, and others. Unlike a general arts degree, an honours program requires more advanced courses in your chosen major and typically demands higher academic performance. This program suits students who want to explore ideas across cultures, societies, and texts, and who are willing to commit to deeper study in at least one subject area.
